The Industry & Logistics Department at Savills was responsible for securing the Chinese multinational company Aosheng’s relocation to its new facilities, spanning approximately 12,000 sq m, at Panattoni Park – Valongo Logistics Platform. Savills acted on behalf of Panattoni Iberia, the owner of this prime logistics asset.

This state-of-the-art logistics park, which can accommodate up to 75,000 sq m of logistics platforms(distributed in 2 warehouses) features a BREEAM Very Good certification and a prime location with direct access to A41, just 2 km from A4 and only 25 minutes from downtown Porto. It also features a set of characteristics that meet the latest industry standards. The logistics park is 50% leased, with more units available.

Johnny Xu, CEO of Aosheng, states that “It is first time for Aosheng to step our footprint outside China. We believe our selection on Panattoni Valongo for the development of Aosheng’s first oversea production unit will fulfill our outlook of shortening the lead time for our customers in Europe, bringing ourselves closer to them and impoving our general competitiveness in wind power market”
